  • Countdown Is on for Kickoff of Touchdown Atlantic
    23 août – Times& Transcript Countdown is on for kickoff of Touchdown Atlantic Celine Seguin is the Canadian Football League's manager of special events. She has been in Moncton since Monday, organizing a team of technicians as they convert Moncton's Stade Croix Blue Medavie stadium into a football venue ahead of Sunday's clash between the Toronto Argonauts and the Montreal Alouettes, which has been dubbed Touchdown Atlantic. It will be the first CFL regular season game iin Atlantic Canada since 2013. "It's a lot like setting the stage for a big concert," Seguin said. "Our main job is to make sure everything is in place like a stage before the band comes to set up." The first order of business was lengthening artificial turf of the stadium's field, since a soccer field isn't as long as a regulation football field. The City of Moncton agreed in July to pay $55,000 for the addition of an extra 20 yards of turf at either end zone, but the agreement stipulates that some or all of that will be covered by the promoter, depending on ticket sales. Seguin said the soccer field was wide enough to meet the CFL standard of 65 yards. The two yellow end zone goal posts were sourced locally, and tipped with orange flags that act as wind indicators. The lines on the soccer field almost matched the football markings, but the CFL brought in a professional crew from Edmonton to paint all the lines, numbers and sponsor logos. On Thursday afternoon, Bruce Simpson of Edmonton was painting the lines on the field while other technicians were busy setting up sound and light systems.

The Canadian Award for Financial Reporting program was established to encourage municipal governments throughout Canada to publish high quality financial reports and to provide peer recognition and technical guidance for officials preparing these reports. In order to be awarded this Canadian Award, for Financial Reporting, a government unit must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized annual financial report, whose contents conform to program standards. Such reports should go beyond the minimum requirements of generally accepted accounting principles and demonstrate an effort to clearly enhance an understanding of financial reporting by municipal governments, and address user needs. A Canadian Award for Financial Reporting is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current report continues to conform to the Canadian Award for Financial Reporting program requirements and as such we are submitting it to the GFOA for consideration
